Using the Dashboard for Daily Task Prioritization
A practical workflow guide for using your Landager dashboard as a daily task manager. Learn what to check first, second, and third every morning.
Property management is chaotic. There are always five things that need attention simultaneously. The Landager dashboard is designed to help you decide what to do first.
The 60-Second Morning Check
Every workday, open your dashboard and answer these three questions in order:
Question 1: Did Everyone Pay Me? (10 Seconds)
Look at the month summary on the dashboard.
- If Collected matches Total Due: ✅ Move on.
- If there's a gap: You have outstanding rent. Open the Payments page and follow up with the non-paying tenants before doing anything else. Cash flow is king.
Question 2: Is Anything Broken? (10 Seconds)
Open the Maintenance page and check for Open requests.
- If there are no new Open requests: ✅ Vendors are doing their jobs.
- If there are new Open requests: A new issue was reported. Check if it's an Emergency priority that needs immediate attention.
Question 3: Did Anything Unexpected Happen? (40 Seconds)
Scroll down to the recent activity list on the dashboard and skim the 10 most recent activity items.
- Look for any actions you didn't personally authorize.
- Look for lease terminations, payment deletions, or property modifications that seem unusual.
- If everything looks clean: ✅ Your portfolio is running smoothly.
After the Morning Check
If all three questions pass, your dashboard has just confirmed that:
- Your cash flow is healthy.
- Your physical assets are maintained.
- Your database integrity is intact.
You can now move on to proactive tasks (lease renewals, vendor negotiations, vacancy marketing) instead of reactive firefighting.
The End-of-Month Ritual
On the last day of the month, perform a deeper version of this check:
- Verify the dashboard month summary shows a 100% collection rate.
- Ensure all open maintenance requests have been closed or explicitly carried over.
- Generate a PDF report from the Reports page for your records before the new month begins.
